Disturbances: interference noise • Measurement errors can occur due to the undesirable interaction between the measurement system and: • the object under test, • the environment, • observer. Disturbance +Dy x y Measurement System
5. SOURCES OF ERRORS. 5.6. Disturbances: interference noise • There are two types of disturbances (interference noise): • additive disturbance, • multiplicative disturbance. • To quantify the effect of additive disturbances on the measurement system, the disturbance sensitivity (or sensitivity factor) is used: Dy Dd dy dd ___ Sd ___ . x=0 x=0 Disturbance, d (DVCC ) Measurement System Dy x=0 dy=Sd dd (SVCC [Dy/V] supply voltage sensitivity)
5. SOURCES OF ERRORS. 5.6. Disturbances: interference noise • Additive disturbances can be written as the equivalent disturbing input signal Sd Sx xeq___ Dd , • where Sx is the sensitivity of the measurement system: dy dx . Sx = ___ Disturbance, d Measurement System dy=Sx xeq x+xeq y+Dy

5. SOURCES OF ERRORS. 5.6. Disturbances: interference noise. 5.6.1. Reduction of the influence of disturbances 5.2.1. Reduction of the influence of disturbances • 1. Isolate the measurement system. For example, use electro-magnetic shielding, stabilize the ambient temperature, etc. • Separate the effect of disturbances on the output of measurement system to correct the measurements. For example, suppress the input signal and measure the output signal due to the additive disturbance only. Then correct the measurements with the input signal applied. • 3. Change the input signal in such away to avoid the disturbance. For example, translate a dc signal into ac one to avoid dc offset and drift and flicker noise. • 4. Split the measurement system (or only its critical part) into two parallel or series channels and use parallel, series, or ratio compensation to compensate the disturbance.

5. SOURCES OF ERRORS. 5.6. Disturbances: interference noise. 5.6.1. Reduction of the influence of disturbances Note that negative feedback reduces additive disturbances by the same factor as it reduces the sensitivity of the system. This means that the ratio of the measurement signal and the disturbances (both referred to the output or the input) will notchange due to the application of feedback. x+xeq y+Dy SOL b In the same way, the signal-to-noise ratio of the measurement system will alsonot be improved by using negative feedback. (It will be decreased due to the additional noise contribution by the feedback network.) Reference: [1]
